Patrice Bevans is an American Actress currently based in London, working in featured artist and background roles in film, TV and commercials. Patrice was born in Lincoln Nebraska in the Midwestern plains of the United States.

Patrice moved to the Greater London area to the Royal Borough of Kingston-Upon-Thames with her husband and two children after spending several years in Switzerland. After settling in the London area, Patrice began performing in numerous Feature Films as a background artiste or featured extra in notable productions such as War Machine starring Brad Pitt (Produced by Netflix), The Time of Their Lives starring Dame Joan Collins (Directed by Roger Goldby), and Patrick starring Jennifer Saunders ( Directed by Mandie Fletcher).

She also made television appearances on behalf of the Prescriptives brand of cosmetics on local TV programs. Her varied life experiences and extensive travel have "allowed me to easily take on a large variety of roles and personas. I have had the great privilege to have lived in many places within the US such as Chicago & San Francisco and spent significant amounts of time in New York with work commitments. I have lived in Europe & the UK. I have done everything from detassling corn in the heat of summer, conducted scarf-tying demonstrations at major department stores to waiting tables, row 40km non stop through the Venetian islands, hiked Denali in Alaska and played cow-patty bingo in the American West. I have worked with a range of personalities from the haughty-est of divas to supporting those needing a helping hand through volunteer efforts. I am also an athlete and I am strong. I am actively engaged in a variety of sports such as rowing and tennis which require a lot of strength and endurance. I am lucky to have experienced these references to enhance my perception of people and places to inform the characters I play." Patrice credits her Midwestern American roots to providing her with a fastidious and strong work ethic which suits her well on set. She characterizes herself as Strong, Confident, Professional and Gregarious. A performer who doesn't take herself too seriously which is reflected in her down-to-earth, approachable and easy going style.
